The Chainmonsters Demo: Whatโs in it?
Chainmonsters is a Play to Earn, online, multiplayer, role-playing game that shares similarities with Pokemon, Axie Infinity, and Genshin Impact. Players can visit ‘Ancora’ to catch, battle, and trade monsters with various exciting abilities.ย

World Battles
Players can explore Ancora to battle, and attempt to catch, wild ‘Chainmons’. These mystical creatures spawn in specific parts of the world, with each offering different abilities, stats, and rarities.ย
Multiplayer
Thousands of players can participate in a shared multiplayer space within the same server. Players are then further divided into multiple instances that can host up to 100 players at once. The developers behind the game boast that the Chainmonsters demo can easily handle even the most crowded servers without suffering any setbacks.ย
After completing the story’s first chapter, players can challenge each other to battle with their Chainmons.

On the Flipside
- A date for the full release of Chainmonsters has yet to be announced, and there is also no clear indication of when the open beta launch will go live.
- The Chainmonsters demo was expected to be released in August. With the demo being delayed, it is reasonable to infer that the open beta may also be pushed back.
